My son and daughter in law just had their wedding at the Carriage House at Lynch Park Beverly with…read moreVinwood. From the start Jessica from Vinwood was the most responsive of any caterer we contacted. She was very professional and easy to work with. As the wedding date approached we also worked with Gary who was great to work with and was a wonderful day of the wedding manager. He took the worry out of anything before it became a concern. They were both awesome to work with. The entire staff at the wedding were great. The chefs, waiters and waitresses as well as the bus boys and clean up crew to the bartenders were all professional, friendly and extremely helpful. The food, what can I say about the food...The kids wanted a bbq and Vinwood offers various buffet themed events. We went with the Western BBQ which included salad, bread, steak tips, ribs, sausage, chicken, corn and potato salad. All were excellent and our guests were raving about the food. There was something for everyone which was great. Prices for the buffet were very reasonable and lower than some that we looked into. All in all we expected great food with professional service and Vinwood delivered. We are very glad we went with them, they made the wedding very special.

Not only was the food delicious but they do the little things that matter a lot. Servers were professional and the passed appetizers were plentiful and everywhere they needed to be... like a separate spread for the wedding party as they had post ceremony photos taken. They also did a terrific job with the food allergies - no issues for even the complicated allergies. Finally, they helped the couple spend their money wisely, making suggestions on where to spend and where to save. Thank you!!!

Two Chefs catered my daughter's bridal shower in my home this past weekend and it was beyond…read moreperfect. It was luncheon food starting with assorted cheeses, fresh fruit, three different types of quiche, three different gourmet sandwiches, a delicious tropical pasta salad, and a spinach strawberry salad. They provided yummy cookies and brownies for dessert. I received many compliments for the food. They provided two servers to set up and clean up and they did a wonderful job. They were very pleasant, attentive, efficient and unobtrusive. We also had a cake that we bought separately and the staff was more than willing to cut it for us. Jamie was very pleasant to work with and was very patient with all of my questions, requests, and changes. I am looking forward to hosting another event so I can use them again!

I spent a long time trying to decide on a caterer since food (and cost) were very important to me…read morefor my wedding. Alison, the event manager, not only acts as your caterer but she really does handle the event coordinator role too, and she is very familiar with it, so ladies, you can sit back and relax. Rentals, decorations, food - they handle it ALL so don't bother hiring an event coordinator - trust me, with these guys you don't need one. Budget: The people at Two Chefs really do work with your budget. In fact, they work harder than the typical caterer to be within your budget, whatever it may be. Alison understood me from the get-go and knew straight away what things could be done to lessen the numbers while still being completely honest with me. Actually, I think they ended up making it UNDER-my budget. Tasting: I ended up doing a tasting with Walter (one of the three head chefs) and he was phenomenal, staying with us to joke around and answer any questions we had. When we gave him our opinions on the food (the original chicken we had was a little dry and we weren't fond of the foccacia for a wedding setting), he didn't get upset. Instead, he pondered for a while and recommended a ton of other chicken dishes. That's what I call being a great chef. You don't take things personally, instead you aim to help your client as best you can. The meats at the tasting were all tender and juicy, the salad was extremely fresh (we had a choice of 3!) and the mashed potatoes were silky smooth and left you wanting more. Issues?: There was a slight problem with the linen numbers the day before the wedding and I started to get a panicky, but Steve (another head chef) stepped in and said that he'd take care of it. He even called me a second time to reassure me and tell me not to be worried about a thing. Again, amazing. Day of: Kathy (event coordinator) was a comforting presence at my side at all times to make sure I had everything I needed and to remind me of when I needed to do things. Steve (one of the 3 head chefs) was always there bringing me food so that I would be able to eat. Thank you Steve! What people said?: It was the best food they've ever had at a wedding. One friend said that normally the beef is either way undercooked or really dried out, but this was perfectly cooked beef and he had several helpings. And they were extremely efficient at clearing away plates, the place was spotless! More importantly, you're not a number to them - you become someone they want to get to know personally and to make happy - which is something you really can't pay for. Forget the big expensive caterers who end up costing you a fortune for food and service, Two Chefs works the service cost in so that you can see the final number and they work extra hard to make your wedding (or any event) perfect.

Oh Jolie was amazing! Rosa, Joe and Tony are pros! Because of them, my birthday party was a hit!…read more During the party, my friends kept mentioning to me how great the food is and asking "where did you find these caterers?"! It was amazing to have 3 different and equally delicious (and gorgeous) pizza options at a station while the rest of the apps were passed around! Our friends could stay in their conversations and enjoy these treats right there! And as the host, I didn't have to do a thing! They set up, served, and cleaned up so well! Oh Jolie is now my go to caterer! No need to go elsewhere! Also, the app choices were vast and mouth watering! Such a great crew with delicious talents! Thank you so much again! Here's a picture of Joe and me at the party! Lastly, I should mention that not only did they make our night, but they were so easy to work with during the planning part. Rosa was very attentive, friendly and flexible. I knew instantly that I found the right caterers! Thank you Rosa, Joe and Tony!

The food is wonderful!…read more I finally contracted with them myself for a milestone birthday party (unfortunately the weather was near blizzard-like conditions), but Mizioch-Witham staff came early to the event to set up. The food was homemade, hot and delicious! We ordered raviolis (they were huge!), meatballs and chicken tenders (the tenders were huge and meaty), garden salad (the dressing was very tasty) and cold cut platters. The meal also came with chips, potato salad, condiments, coffee and mini canolis, cream puffs and eclairs. The table cloths and napkins were clean and bright. Given the weather, we still had a decent turnout, and the caterers remained at the event until people had seconds. They then put the leftovers in take away pans. They also left takeaway containers for guests to bring food home! The staff was incredibly friendly and professional. I would absolutely work with them again!

From our first meeting with Donald, it was clear Harvest was going to be our wedding caterer…read more Getting married is stressful, and having Donald on-board went a long way to keeping us sane. We had a below average budget, and he did a great job of putting a menu together that looked beautiful, tasted delicious and was within our limits. Donald has a bunch of tricks up his sleeve that made planning easy too, like event layout tools to quickly show us where we could place tables. He's also about the nicest guy you'll ever met! The food was terrific, his staff friendly and professional. Top notch company. Highly recommended.

I was told upon explaining the situation that no refunds were to occur under no circumstances. I understand, and I did sign a contract, but you'd think Donald would be slightly more accommodating? Anything can happen with wedding planning, grandma could kick the bucket etc, so Is "Donald from Harvest Catering" going to be there for you if something bad/ unexpected happens???? Sue Lynch from Sue Lynch photography treated me the same. ALL of my other vendors were apologetic and sincerely sorry when expressing their condolences and sending refunds! Be cautious as anything can happen, especially nowadays with covid !

We enjoyed homemade blueberry and cheese scones; spinach and cheddar tartlets; pear, caramelized onion, and gorgonzola crostinis; and various other sandwiches and tasty, gormet snacks. Everything tasted amazing and went along perfectly with our garden tea party theme! David arrived hours before the event, prepped and prepared each dish and carefully laid out things out with beautiful presentation. Guests complimented the food throughout the entire party. We were left with a nice amount of leftovers that we intend to use at a family gathering today! Prices were very reasonable for the quality and care that David puts into each dish. Highly recommended.

I was taking a mental health day from work last week and just had to get outside and enjoy the…read morespring air. I researched local eateries that had outdoor seating and made my way down to Zuzu's. Though most of the tables were roped off to the side, I noticed a couple open ones in the front, so I proceeded. The small shop is quaint and cute, but the menu is ample. The sandwich selections sounded scrumptions and I had a hard time picking just one. I finally settled on the French Chicken that includes grilled chicken, goat cheese, asparagus, tomato, greens and herb mayo. You get your choice of panini, sandwich bread or a wrap. Not many places offer flavored wraps and I am happy to report that Zuzu's does (white, wheat or spinach). I got the spinach. I asked the worker if the patio was open and she directed me to the same two patio tables I had seen when I first approached. She seemed a little stressed or preoccupied, but no matter, I was content to enjoy the day. I waited at my table for the sandwich to arrive and got to do some people watching along main street in the crisp air. My sandwich arrived in less than 10 minutes and I dived right in. Delicious! I love how it was laid out, every layer provided an even bite. I'm a sucker for anything with goat cheese on it, so it was already a win, but I hadn't seen the asparagus listed on the menu, so I was a little taken aback. But I have to say that it provided a perfect little crunch. The chicken was tender and the herb aioli was uplifting. I read a previous review about the Zuzu's pickles, and I have to agree. I actually make my own pickles at home and would prefer a more fresh sliced pickle on the side than the one that was provided. Overall, my first time at Zuzu's was a 4 star experience, and I look forward to enjoying many more delectable menu items!

The day of, I picked up the food cold and heated it myself according to Dawn's instructions, and every item we ordered was fantastic. Literally every single person at the party remarked on how great it all was. I highly recommend Zuzu's for any catering needs, and thank Dawn for helping me pull together a successful family event. She couldn't have been nicer or easier to work with (even when I was inadvertently slightly a jerk during pickup because of a previous and completely unrelated interaction I had had earlier that day). We're very likely to order again.

Everyone we worked with was extremely helpful and professional throughout the entire process. They guided us through the daunting task of designing our menu and beverage program, as well as assisted in our furniture and linen rentals. We always felt like we were in good hands. The food was absolutely stunning! Capers has a wide variety of interesting menu options, far beyond your typical wedding dishes. We ended up going with BBQ, Asian, and fall seasonal stations, in addition to an assortment of fun appetizers, plus gourmet donuts for dessert. The food was unique, gorgeous, and most importantly, absolutely delicious! They were also able to make special accommodations for our guests with dietary restrictions, so everybody left with a full belly. Many guests told us that this was the best wedding food they've ever had. We definitely agree! For the bar, Capers was able to handle all of our special requests and provided a unique selection of craft beers, ciders, seltzers, as well as plenty of wine and liquor options. They did a great job of finding cool, local brands that gave the bar a much more upscale feel without breaking the bank. The signature cocktails that they designed for us were both beautiful and delicious. Our guests couldn't stop raving about them! P.S. Get the cake pops, you won't regret it!

I need to start this review by putting it in context-I had NO idea what I was doing when it came to…read morewedding planning. None. Completely lost. Kristin from Capers COMPLETELY made everything so easy. She was so responsive and answered any and all random questions. She helped us with a timeline and diagrammed how the room would be set up and she was on top of EVERYTHING. On the day of, Kristin started the set up and, even though I kept asking if I could help, she was completely on top of everything. It was great to have someone I could completely trust so I could worry about other things. Then, Catherine took over for the dinner itself and she was amazing too! They remembered that my husband and I don't really drink, so we got sparkling grape juice for the toast without even asking! At the end of the night, Catherine even gave up a bag of leftovers, which was amazingly sweet. The day could not have gone better and it was really thanks to Capers that everything went so well. They aren't just caterers; they seriously are magic-makers. And the food. The food was AMAZING! My husband loved the steak and I had the fish and it was amazing. My absolute favorite was the lobster roll appetizer (I may have eaten 15 of them while hungover the day after in the hotel lobby....oops!). Everything was just perfect. THANK YOU!!!
